New page reviewer

I help in many places on Wikipedia including reviewing pending changes and watching for vandalism as well as just making general edits to the main space. I would also like to start helping here in reviewing new pages. I believe I meet most of the guidelines listed. Although I have't moved many pages I have had quite a bit of history in filing move requests and am quite familiar with Wikipedia's naming conventions. I hope I am granted this right so I am able to help in more places then I currently am. Thanks. TheDoctorWho (talk) 02:54, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done edit warring on Tracy Spiridakos in September where you were warned instead of blocked. This falls outside of our granting requirements. Please come back in 2 months when 6 months will have passed. I'd also suggest you spend more time looking over the discussions at WP:AFD and commenting on some of the more clearcut ones, so you can learn more about our policies and guidelines on inclusion, which is key for NPP.

I'm the primary editor of WP:BATS, and I would be interested in having new page reviewer privileges to identify pages that belong under the umbrella of WP:BATS or WP: MAMMALS and ensure that they they meet notability guidelines. I'd also like to help bring new articles about these subjects up to a higher quality and welcome newer users to Projects they might be interested in. Enwebb (talk) 22:16, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 Done I see no obvious issues. NPR doesn't typically focus on the area, but if the page curation tool can help you, I have no problem granting this flag. TonyBallioni (talk) 23:32, 27 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Might as well try and give a helping hand in keeping the encyclopaedia clutter-free as much as non-working hours allow. - The Gnome (talk) 15:23, 28 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I believe I now have the knowledge to properly review articles, and I want to clear the backlog, and improve the wiki in any way. Also, I was invited by User:Insertcleverphrasehere Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 09:38, 29 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
 Not done But, I have given you the pending changes reviewer right, as well as the rollback right. Let's see how well you're able to operate those, and then how about you come back here in 30 days time to see if you're ready for this right! I hope you're not too disappointed, we just take handing out this particular right a bit seriously and need a lot of contributions in editing approval (or page creations without deletions) before we can determine whether editors are ready for this right.

Seems fair, thanks! Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 01:29, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
I have been on here for quite long, even though I don't have much time to edit. I do hope that i can lend a helping hand to review new pages, since I have experience in AFC reviewing and close to none have been contested. I am aware about vandalism and handled before so I hope that I can gain access to this.

@Vincent60030: The only holdup here is a copyright violation problem from 2016 (link). Are you familiar with Wikipedia's copyright policy and the guides on avoiding plagiarism and paraphrasing? This is something you will likely encounter as a new page reviewer. Malinaccier (talk) 19:53, 30 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]
